felted purses

[HeatherFeather]

mom isn't quite "getting" what I want for the felted purses I want to make. So, I am getting all sorts of crazy things...but the latest, I want to do double duty with it.

It is a V neck sweater, and a pretty deep V...I want to save the yarn from the "V" up before it is felted. But am afraid that if I just cut the yarn, the rest will be a shrively mess. Do I really have that worry??

How can I save that yarn??

THANKS!!!
